STRUCK BY A PIECE OF BEEF.

Mr.. Wigham, who about year
ago, was employed by Mr.. f. B.
Thomas, and who several months
ago went to work on Hamakuapoko
plantation, has come to Honolulu
for medical treatment for wounds
received while herding cattle. He
was riding a colt and had lassoed a
bullock, when the maddened piece
of beef charged him. Mr.. Wig
hams horse was struck full in the
chest by the bullock's horns, and
killed almost instantly. The rider
was thrown violently to the ground,
receiving injuries that confined him
to his bed for several days. Having
recuperated some, he came to Ho-
nolulu last Sunday and is now al
most we'll.

CHASING THE scRAPER,
A Peculiar Occupation Created BY
Production of Petroleum.

| A Peculiar Occupation Created by the
Production of Petroleum.
One of the many odd callings which
the production and pipeline transporta-
tion of petroleum have made necessary
is one known as chasing the scraper." Z"
Crude petroleum is run from the oil
regions to the retineries at the seaboard,
distance of three hundred miles, in
iron pipes. 1t is forced over tho high
hills that intervene by powerful pumps.
Much of the way it runs by it's own
gravity. These pipes are constantly be-
coming clogged by sediment and paraf-
fine. To clean them out, an iron stem,
two and q half feet long, to which arc
attached circular steel scrapers. fitting
loosely in the pipes. is placed in tho
pipe at regular periods. This is forced
along the line by the pressure of the oil
behind it. 1t is necessary to keep track
of this scraper, in order that its exact To-
cation may be constantly known, so that,
If it is stopped by any obstacle. it may
be readily discovered and the obstacle
removed. The noise made by the
scraper against the iron pipes, as it
moves along their interior. would not
be heard by an unframed ear; but cer-
tain employees of the Pipe Line Com
pany are able to follow it on its Jour-
ney by the noise, and never lose it's
situation. These men are the scraper-
chasers. They are stationed in relays
three or four miles apart. along the
line. One chaser will follow up md
down mountains, across ravines, and
through streams and swamps until he
reaches the end of his section, when
another man takes up the chase and
follows 1t until his relief is reach cd,
and so on until the course of the scrapor
8 run. The work is one of hardship
md danger owing to the character
II the country through which miles
Il the pipe line is laid. II chaser
" any mishap is thrown off the
rack Of the scraper. and 1t becomes
logged before he can recover its
'osition In the pipe, the cutting Of the
ipe for a long distance is frequently

sct may be found-a work that Is ac-
ompanied by much expense and labor.

ABOUT WEED SEEDS.
The Number OF Perfect Seeds Produced
by Q Single BurdoGk Plant.

Tho Number Of Perfect Seeds Produced
by Single Burdook Plant.
We work hard during the early part
OF the spring and summer months to fiji
the ground for the various crops, and
guard with jealous care the tender
young blade. using cultivator and hoo
to keep down and destroy weeds. We
are surprised to see, soon after fresh
crop make their appearance. as vigorous
and healthy as the first We wonder
where they can possibly come from.
There is an adage that "One years
seeding makes seven years wedding"
Plants. like animals that are left to
shift for themselves, will, in few
generations, by Natural Selection
and Survival OF the Fittest." assume
forms which are capable of contending
with adverse circumstances, and so re-
produce their kind, and unless held in
check would overrun a district. The
dissemination of seeds. as the thistle
and dandelion, which have pappus, or
winged seeds. is very easily accounted
for The wind carries them across
field and garden, and they find a suita-
bic place to germinate; but of some of
the larger and heavier seeds, it seems
hard to account for the widespread
dissemination. Birds have much to do
with scattering seeds. Also. many are
carted out on the fields in manure, and
If all grew that ripened in out-of-the-
way places--in fence corners and road
sides-we should indeed have our hands

have been much interested and in.
structed this season in gathering the
seeds OF different weeds. The only
thing that seems strange is, that we, AS
farmers. have not given the subject
more thought. How many have ever
taken one weed, the burdock, for ex-
ample. and counted tho seedsp found
in the rear Of my grain barn nice
patch of burdock Uappa Major) One
OF these l selected, and with great pa
tience counted the seeds of average
heads (hree counted the heads), and
found this one plant was able to fur
nish from 400, 900 to 100000 perfect
seeds. also counted and estimated
the number of seeds one large plant OF
purslane (portulacca Oleracea), which
found to be over 50O,0 ,00O might give
further experience in this matter, but
this will adequately illustrate to the
reader what an enormous amount of
weed seeds arc allowed to ripen and
seed the ground.
Go count the weeds of different kinds
growing near your dwelling. and then
estimate the number Of plants that one
1t these is capable of producing another
'eason. Thus you may easily see the
orce OF the adage quoted above.--Cor

ODD FORMS OF ENGLISH.
An Amusing Collection OF Verbal Bulls and
Blunders.

An Amusing Collection OF Verbal Bulls and
Blunders.
Curious ways of expressing ideas in
English may be expected from foreign.
ers, as, for instance, when the French
man, who paid call to this country
and was about to be introduced to a
family, said: "Ah, re ladies! Zen l
would before, if you please, wish to
purify mine hands and to sweep mine
hair"
But the various nationalities of tho
British isles are sometimes not whit
behind in verba. bulls and blunders.
and in what may generally be de-
scribed as odd ways of putting things.
1t is said that when Constable's aunt
was dying the good, deaf old lady said:
"Anne, if Ishould be spared to be taken
away hope my nephew will get the
doctor to open my head and see if any
thing can be done for my hearing"
A Paisley publican was complaining of
his servant-maid that she could never
be found when required. ''She'll gang
DOT o the house." said he, "twenty
times for ance she'll come in" Itmust
have been relative of his who aroused
her servant at four o'clock with:
''Come, Mary, get up. Here tits Mon
day morning, tomorrow is Tuesday,
the next days Wednesday-half the
week gone and nothing done yet"
Taffy often plays amusing pranks
with the Queens English. A Welsh
landlord, who for some time had been
annoyed by an obstreperous guest,
walked across the room to him, and,
striking tho table with his fist, shouted
very volubly: "You haf kick up n row
all day here tonight! We was not in
terfere with you, do we? Efery man
here mind his own pizness; yes. by
Jing! no!
Pat, of course. is proverbial for his
eloquent, If rather novel and puzzling
ways ofputting things. A retired army
surgeon in the north of Ireland had q
humorous experience of this when often
visited by the noighboring peasants.
